LIBYA is a member of the African Union. Libya unlike Egypt has a history of supporting the DECOLONIZATION of the continent. She is the most important contributor to OAU Libration Fund. Colonel al-Gaddafi, unlike other North African heads of states, has also invested heavily in Africa. He also was not a sell out. To be fair to our brothers and sisters in Libya, the history does not justify the bloodsheds going on. The events taking place in North Africa, the information technology that has democratized the information space and the activities of the Wiki Leak are leading to a major global restructuring in terms of power, control and governance, the ending structure and form is unknown to us. What we do know is that global institutional transformation is taking place and is a continual process. What do you think?
PEACE
KOFI KISSI DOMPERE.

Subject: USA Africa Dialogue Series - What says the African Union about Colonel al-Gaddafi and current events in Libya?
The Arab League has taken their stance and it is not as if the African nations care less about the fate of Libya and Libyans.
An important question for us in this forum, and indeed for the rest of Africa and diaspora, is why the gaping silence from the Africa Union, about the lastest antics of the man who has played such a pivotal role in African Union matters, not least of all in his largesse in providing funding for a few projects in Africa and also not least of all his well known ambition to become the first president of the United States of Africa?
